Chapter 1807Chapter 1807
Just as the man was stunned by Gilbert's counter-attack, Gilbert grabbed the man by the collar and
swiftly dragged him along.
The man in black struggled with all his might, but to no avail. He was thus at a loss for words.
Thud!
Gilbert unceremoniously tossed the man ahead. The latter landed before Jared and was pinned to the
ground by Gilbert, who stepped on his back.
The man in black glanced at Jared with horror in his eyes.
“Answer me. Why are you getting in our way? Have you already discovered the ruins?” asked Jared,
looking at the man in black.
Although the man in black was terrified, he still refused to speak, clenching his mouth shut firmly.
Looks like he's planning to keep resisting till the end.
Seeing how determined the man was, Jared sneered and casually traced out some runes in the air.
“Heart Eater!”
Glowing spots then appeared mid-air in a flash before slowly entering the man's body.
Flaxseed looked enviously at how Jared could draw charms like this with ease.
“Ah!”
Soon, the man in black screamed in pain while trembling all over.He felt like countless ants were crawling around his body, gnawing on his internal organs.
“Fine! I'll talk! I'll talk!”
The man in black could not take the torture. Just as he was about to speak, his head suddenly exploded.
Jared frowned and looked at what was left of the man's head. “D*mn it. This one has been hexed!”
He didn't expect foreign sects to also have a practice of hexing their subordinates' minds as a fail-safe to
prevent them from betraying the sect.
“Gilbert, capture another one,” ordered Jared.
Gilbert nodded and disappeared in a flash.
Joel and Danny, who were barely holding on amid the frenzied battle, sensed an aura encircling them
before capturing one of the men in black and disappearing once more.
Right then, only a few men in black were left fighting Danny and Joel.
Despite noticing that their comrades were being whisked away, they could spare no manpower to
attempt a rescue.
The man who was captured was obviously panicking, and the fear was evident in his eyes.
Jared said nothing. All he did was place a hand on the man in black's head. Spiritual energy surged into
the man's head and immediately broke the curse in his mind.
It was only after lifting the curse that Jared asked, “Who are you? Why are you getting in our way? Have
you already discovered the ancient ruins?”This time, the man in black did not hesitate to answer. “We're disciples of Flaming Sect, and we serve
Mr. Alex. We were ordered to either dispose of the people who came in search of the ancient ruins, or
find ways to force them to give up because we had already discovered the ruins ages ago. We had also
been here for a few months now.”
When Jared heard this, his heart sank.
They've been here for a few months. I wonder what's left of the ancient ruins for us to discover.
“What have you guys been doing in the ancient ruins for a few months?”
Jared did not understand why they lingered in the ancient ruins for months when they could've left after
emptying the whole place.
“We have been building an altar made of crystals.”
The man in black dared not conceal anything.
“An altar made of crystals? What purpose does it serve?”
Jared was quite curious.
The man in black shook his head. “I'm not sure of this. Only Mr. Alex knows.”
Jared noticed that the man in black was merely a lackey who did not know much inside information.
Thus, he reached out and ended the man's life with a single punch.
After all, Jared was not the type to court trouble by keeping his enemies alive.
“Gilbert, go help out and rescue that handbell guy. I reckon he may be of use to us.”
Given that Jared did not know what the altar was for, it was likely that Joel knew its intended purpose.novelbin
